This weekend went pretty well. I went with a friend to grab drinks and watch some playoff baseball. Later that night W did her standard night out/see you tomorrow routine so I did movie night with D4. The next morning we were out of the house before W got home. We went to a park and went to my dad's house for his bday. We stopped at a large bridge on the way to check out the view. Got to spend time with family which was nice and talk about things with my sister, who is the only family member of mine that knows what's going on. W was in her room when we got back and pretty much stayed there the rest of the day.
Today I met with 2 lawyers. I'm not sure how helpful it was, but it solidified some thoughts I had which is nice. They both said if I get divorced I'll be financially screwed between child support, alimony and whatever my new rent/mortgage is. They also both said I probably won't be able to help D18 pay for college. Also, I am pretty much stuck selling the house, even though neither of us wants to. I was kind of expecting it, but was hopeful they might have some other recommendation. So that's fun. Part of me wants to drag it out and enjoy things while I have the money to do it, part of me wants a quick resolution so I can move on with life. I don't want to be a jerk, but I also don't want to be walked on.

This seems to apply to everything going on right now. I've got the info that I need. Time to make some decisions.
